RISK

Why GOOGLESUPER_MODIFY_THREAD_LABELS is rated Medium

This tool modifies Gmail thread labels by adding or removing them, which are non-destructive, reversible operations. Labels can be added back or removed as needed. While it affects email organization and potentially visibility/filtering (hence 'medium' severity if misused to hide/expose messages), it does not delete, destroy, or execute arbitrary code.

From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Adds or removes specified existing label IDs from a Gmail thread' — these are reversible modifications to message metadata/organization.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs GOOGLESUPER_MODIFY_THREAD_LABELS safely

GOOGLESUPER_MODIFY_THREAD_LABELS Rate-limited

GOOGLESUPER_MODIFY_THREAD_LABELS stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
